As has been stated before this is a nonsense. The cost of opening the ground for 1000 supporters is totally prohibitive. The club would be better off financially if those 1000 watched the game on valley live.
You’re quite right - the club have confirmed it’s happening as well, so I definitely got that one wrong. I’m guessing they’ll email tickets to the lucky 1,000
It would be nice if the club actually told us how it plans to allocate the 1000 places.
They’ve said on Twitter more info soon. As it’s only just been confirmed they probably need to think of the best way without upsetting too many people - would have thought some kind of lottery of season ticket holders. Or equal split across stands...depends on the test criteria I imagine.
Just looked at the Season Ticket page on the OS. Season tickets are for 22 games and exclude the Doncaster game. So, I'm guessing that S/T holders won't neccessarily get any preference. Might also mean that any stream will have to be paid for...

But presumably without teams participating in this nonsense we can kiss goodbye to bigger numbers of fans being let in further down the line

When season tickets initially went on sale it included the Doncaster game - the club then removed that game from the ST option because of the limit that would exist and so dropped prices.
So this game will actually only be available to those who purchased before that game got dropped - It made sense as whats the point letting loads of people pay the cost of the Doncaster game and then having to offer refunds
Weird choice to go with them considering its a covid hotspot and dog shit tiny stadium.
Interesting, as I believe you've informed us more than once, that there is a lack of face masks being worn (and I believe you live in the vicinity). Supports your observations.

Season tickets for the 2020/21 season went on sale on Monday, June 15th at 1pm with a 22-game package going on-sale on Monday, 24th August.

OK. Didn't realise that. The game is already being advertised as a payable stream. But I guess that was put up before today's announcement. Bit complicated the T's & C's to get into the ground but its all here. Stream available free for early S/T holders who don't get in.

Yeah im on the beds/herts border so see lots of news plus the lack of use of masks on my trains upto 2 or 3 weeks ago. Things seem to have improved recently as there is a bigger police presence on public transport, even the staff at stations are all wearing them now.

A nonsense?
That wouldn’t be a very good pilot scheme though would it?
Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere but when are Charlton fans being allowed back to watch games at The Valley? I renewed my season ticket very early on so assume I would receive 'priority' status for being allowed back. I understood that we are allowing fans in this week but I have heard nothing and still haven't received my season ticket/card. I thought we were allowing 1000 fans in as a bit of a 'pilot'. It doesn't look like I am one of them but unsure why not in the absence of any explanation or update from the club.
Anyone 'ITK' or know more than me on this?
This season has all the makings of being seriously affected for fans watching professional football. I'll be surprised if grounds will take any more than 50% of capacity.
Pretty sure 30% is the number that's been discussed on other threads.
Agreed. I should have added that 50% would be the maximium grounds will take this season.

Its pretty difficult testing the stadium if the fans are at home.

Yeah I'd day theres more chance of attending being scrapped again, than more then 50% being allowed in.

It wouldn't shock me if that 1000 person attendance became the only game with any spectators before Covid restrictions become tighter
Have STs been sent out yet? I renewed mine over a week ago and it's not turned up
don't think they will be sending them out as will not be in your normal seat. Think once they do a seating plan which may change if numbers allowed do then it will be print at home single tickets.
